Adopted Soldier

Chapter 319

Oliver and Specter were walking around a country to the east of Berdonia . The citizens of this country seem to be unaffected of what was going on in the bigger world . To them the war was a foolish thing the bigger countries decided to do . In this little country called Linowa that was at the edge of the continent, the mercenary system wasn’t being used . This was a country that had little military power, but because it was being shielded by the bigger country of Berdonia and two other friendly countries, it didn’t feel the need to strengthen their own military power . In fact they found the idea of military power sickening .

Most of the people in Linow found the actions of the people of the three super powered countries idiotic and disgusting . They hated the Granado Empire that kept on attacking the surrounding nations, states, and countries . They didn’t like Berdonia either, as the way they handled the situation was too barbaric in their point of view . The people of Linow believed the only reason Berdonia was attacked was simply because they didn’t try to find a proper diplomatic solution . Finally the people of Linow also didn’t like the Southern Union for squeezing themselves into the conflict of the two countries .

Oliver who was currently staying in this country while looking for the base of the Shadow Mercenaries, was starting to get a bit irritated . He wanted to so badly hit these idiotic people of this idiotic country . Hearing them keep on spouting BS as if they were so much better than everyone else got on Oliver’s nerves . It’s not like their country was special or anything, they weren’t even that technological advanced . The only thing the Linowans had going for them, was that there country has the lowest crime rate in the continent, aside from that they had nothing .

’What the f*ck do this people think will happen if Berdonia falls to the Empire? Do they think the Empire wouldn’t do anything to them? Do they truly believe the BS that they’re spouting? I hope they aren’t thinking that as long as they try and talk to the Emperor, the Emperor of the Granado Empire would listen to them? The same Emperor that’s called the "Blood stained Emperor . " These people are fools, why are the Berdonians dying in droves while these fools get to live and mock them?’

Oliver just got even more irritated as he was thinking about it . He was actually hoping the Empire would try and invade Linowa’s sea borders . Once they experience the threat of the Empire, he was sure all their arrogance will disappear . The moment the Empire invades this place, Oliver was sure they would beg the other countries to help them . Just thinking about that made Oliver feel a bit better .

. . .

While Oliver and Specter were walking on the sidewalk, both of them noticed that they were being followed . The two looked at one other then nodded . After that brief interaction Oliver and Specter quickly started running towards a nearby alleyway .

The people pursuing them followed the two into the alleyway, they then saw Oliver and Specter turning right at a corner . The moment the pursuers were about to turn right, they quickly got their guns out and pointed it at Oliver and Specter, who were also aiming weapons at the two stalkers .

"Kris, Joseph . . . What do you two want? Are you finally here to execute us traitors?" Oliver spoke to the two familiar faces, with a frown on his face .

"No, we’re here to do something else . " Kris responded calmly, while talking to Oliver he and Joseph hid their weapons . Seeing the two hiding their weapons Oliver and Specter did the same thing .

"So you finally figured out that Hektor was fooling everyone . " Specter spoke while looking at his two former comrades, still a bit wary .

"Yeah, that b*stard was even able to somehow trick the old monster . He’s been planning this for such a long time . " Joseph joined in the conversation . When Specter heard what Joseph said, he couldn’t help but sneer .

"Do you truly believe that the old man wouldn’t notice? I bet he’s allowing this, since to him nothing we do that isn’t related to him is worth anything . "

"That’s were you’re wrong . This plan of Hektor doesn’t just involve us, it involves everyone in this continent, that includes that old monster . If the old monster knew Hektor’s plan and did nothing, then that must mean he’s truly crazy, or he’s just that confident that he would survive . If you ask me the latter would be in line with the old monster’s personality . "

When Specter and Oliver heard what Kris said they got confused . At first the two thought that Hektor was simply planning on killing Oliver and Richter, but based on what Kris said that doesn’t seem to be the case .

"Kris will you tell us everything you know about Hektor’s plans . " Oliver suddenly spoke in a very cold tone . The moment the other three heard Oliver’s voice they shivered . Their reaction could be considered normal, since not only was Oliver speaking coldly he was also emitting bloodlust that could make even the most hardened merc shiver .

"Sure, we did come here with the intention to tell you guys everything . " Kris then started to tell everything they could figure out about Hektor’s plans . It was just a rough layout of the plan, and Kris and Joseph didn’t know how Hektor plans to implement it, but just the basic thought was enough to make anyone feel fear .

After hearing everything Kris had to say, Oliver suddenly hit the wall of a building making a huge crack .

"What the hell is that b*stard thinking?! He really has gone insane, or was he insane from the beginning?! Sh*t what the hell does he hope to accomplish with such a plan?! Is this really all for getting revenge for my mother? . . . "

Oliver shouted in anger, but the last part was said in a whisper . Specter on the other hand, had a different reaction when he heard of Hektor’s real plan . Specter felt extremely irritated at himself for being so naive . He wasn’t expecting the plan to be this grand .

While the two were having a mental breakdown after hearing Hektor’s plans, Joseph remembered something important that he needed to tell Oliver .

"James, there was something else we needed to tell you . The old man has ordered us to capture your friends from the Mercenary Club . "

Oliver who was contemplating what to do next, was stunned to hear that Richter ordered to capture his friends . That old man didn’t really care about anything else aside from destroying the Granado Empire . Why would someone like that care about a bunch of high school students?

"Why? What does he want from them? Does he plan on using them to threaten me, and show me what happens when one of us betrays the organization?"

"No, it’s not because of that . Do you really think the old man would care about your betrayal that much? To him we’re nothing more than dogs . " Kris looked at Oliver as if he was stupid .

"Then why?"

"It turns out, your friend Alexander Samarita, was actually Dalvir Greyhound, the living breathing grandson of the old man . "

Oliver looked at Kris dumbfounded, Alex was the old monster’s grandson?
